Transaction authorisation:

When you authorise a transaction:

You are agreeing to pay the amount of that transaction by the reduction of the Remaining Card Value.

Purchases exceeding the Gift Card value:

Your Gift Card may only be used to make purchases up to the Remaining Card Value. If you wish to make a purchase for an amount that exceeds the Remaining Card Value, you must pay the excess using another payment method.
